Valis Veg Eco Campsite
Highlight • Rest Area
The facilities are basic but a brilliant introduction to a more wild way of living. There is running cold drinking water as well as hand washing and washing up stations. The toilets are all compost toilets so you can wee, poo and put the toilet roll in them but any sanitary products or wet wipes will need to be bagged up and taken home with you. The showers at the time of my most recent visit were closed due to COVID but when open feature a bucket of cold water and a cup so brace yourself for a refreshing experience!
Each pitch is supplied with a compost bin and any compostable waste can be left here. However, due to the location of the campsite, they do not have any means to collect general waste or recycling so any non-compostable waste needs to be bagged up and taken home. Just like wild camping "leave no trace!".
If you choose to travel by car you need to pay the additional carbon offset fee on booking and park in the designated parking space for your pitch. Travelling by bike is free though and most pitches are secluded and have plenty of trees to lock bikes to or bushes to hide them from view.
The campsite is reasonable walking distance and easy cycling distance from the town of Frome with plenty of trails and quiet roads to explore.
The campsite is well set up for COVID safe camping with very spread out pitches and generally never feels crowded. The wash and toilet facilities have a one-way system in place with hand sanitiser dispensers on all the buildings.
Overall Valis Veg is an excellent campsite for those wanting to dip their toes into wild camping.
